i made it!

perry comes home tonight!!! do you sense the enthusiasm in my voice?! he has been gone since wednesday, enjoying a guys weekend in las vegas. he went with a large group of his friends from calgary so i am sure he had a great time. my parents came down to hang out with us which was a blessing. so so nice to have an extra set of hands. i took advantage a couple of times and left to run a few errands. it's amazing how quickly i can grocery shop without kids! i seriously finished in 15 minutes. i rushed as though i had both with me. i kept telling myself to slow down but i don't think i have that in me anymore.

i did also manage to find a dress for the SABEX awards gala while i snuck out one night. i had beeca come and check it out cuz it's a bit shorter than what i am used to. she gave it the thumbs up so i'm thinking it's ok. it is on the "red carpet" this year after all. the committee is really going all out this year to make it an extra special evening. limos, red carpet, media, an after-party...should be tonnes of fun!!

i also think we've finally figured out our landscaping. i've found a great company who actually returns my phone calls- imagine that! we should be starting in june. a few things left to discuss with perry first but i'm thinking we're ready to sign on the dotted line. i can't wait to have a finished yard. it'll be so nice to have a place for the kids to play. oh and speaking of kids, i seriously can't believe how many there are in our neighbourhood...on our street. it's fantastic. lots of kids ryan's age too which is great. we met a new little girl at the park today and she was just thrilled.

off to get ryan to bed and to get ready myself. silver spoon dinner tomorrow night so that's where i'll be heading after work to volunteer.

hope you had a great weekend!
